The best Quotes by Henry Austin Dobson

Time goes, you say? Ah, no! alas, time stays, we go.

Love comes unseen; we only see it go.

How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand... there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.

But time is life itself, and life resides in the human heart.

When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time.

Calendars and clocks exist to measure time, but that signifies little because we all know that an hour can seem as eternity or pass in a flash, according to how we spend it.

No amount of money ever bought a second of time.

[Minuet of Forest]
The flow of time is always cruel. Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it. A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days.

Time goes faster the more hollow it is. Lives with no meaning go straight past you, like trains that don’t stop at your station.

"But don't you think," I persist, "that it's better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?"

Brom: "The sands of time cannot be stopped. Years pass whether we want them or not... but we can remember. What has been lost may yet live on in memories. That which you will hear is imperfect and fragmented, yet treasure it, for without you it does not exist. I give you now a memory that has been forgotten, hidden in the dreamy haze that lies behind us."

I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived.

Time moves in one direction, memory in another.

Time you enjoy wasting, is not wasted.

[Serenade of Water]
Time passes, people move. Like a river's flow, it never ends. A childish mind will turn to noble ambition. Young love will become deep affection. The clear water's surface reflects growth. Now listen to the Serenade of water to reflect upon yourself.

Time passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. Even for me.

Sadness flies away on the wings of time.

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

Time is like a river, you cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of life!

There is time for work, and time for love. That leaves no other time.

Books are ships which pass through the vast sea of time.

It takes much more courage to be in love than it does for war.

You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it. You say you love sun, but you seek shade when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes, you close your window. So that's why I'm scared when you say you love me.

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.

Finding someone you love and who loves you back is a wonderful, wonderful feeling. But finding a true soul mate is an even better feeling. A soul mate is someone who understands you like no other, loves you like no other, will be there for you forever, no matter what. They say that nothing lasts forever, but I am a firm believer in the fact that for some, love lives on even after we're gone.

If you love two people at the same time, choose the second one, because if you really loved the first one you wouldn't have fallen for the second.

"How do you spell 'love'?" - "You don't spell it... you feel it."

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.
I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you.
Not even close,
not even a little bit,
not even at all!

Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.

Every girl is beautiful. Sometimes it just takes the right guy to see it.

I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough.

I've been in love. It's painful, pointless and overrated.

I can live without you. I just don't want to.

I can hear you, you can hear me, when we listen with our hearts.

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.

Love meant jumping off a cliff and trusting that a certain person would be there to catch you at the bottom.

For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do, that dares love attempt.

I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.

You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.

If you see German soldiers, don't panic. They are here to help.

I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I'm voting for Kamala Harris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.

Donald Trump was fired by 81 million people. Clearly he is having a very difficult time processing that.

It's been the honor of my lifetime to serve as your president. I love the job - but I love my country more.

I am sorry on behalf of most, if not close to all, of Australia at this point. I'm sorry about Raygun and that we broke dancing.

I don't think you understand how Australians work. Once we get a hold of a good quality meme, we drive it into the ground until we die. We're all still dropping the old "I pulled a Bradbury" and that happened over 20 years ago.

I really appreciate the positivity and I'm glad I was able to bring some joy into your lives. That's what I hoped. I didn't realise that would also open the door to so much hate which has, frankly, been pretty devastating.

Don't be afraid to be different, go out there and represent yourself, you never know where that's gonna take you.

Since the day I announced my candidacy, I set out to find a partner who can help unite our nation and move us forward—a fighter for the middle class and patriot who believes in the promise of America. I am here today because I found such a leader: Governor Tim Walz.

Thank you, Kamala Harris, for the trust that you've placed in me. And maybe more so, thank you for bringing back the joy. I couldn't be prouder to be on this ticket - and to help make you the next President of the United States.
